Therapy! Let's get started!!

Let get started!!
It’s vital that everyone realize that to have mind, body and spirit peace you have practice your own medicine and participate in your own therapy; daily, weekly, monthly … for the rest of your life.


What is Therapy?? Sleeping well, exercising, dancing, cycling, loving, singing, fishing, gardening, laughing, living, yoga, sports, reading, praying, massage, soaking in the tub, a visit to the spa, taking off a day from work (a mental health day) etc. Be your best friend and not your worse enemy.


If you do get behind in your therapy and get depleted, only YOU can stop the bleeding to catch up. This means spending more time on yourself. Once you get behind, in this crazy world you have to ASK or help … Friends, family, spouse, kids and boss. Don't be afraid!


Try not to believe folks who see you in therapy and say … “Oh you should not do this or that.” Therapy can not do any harm … none! You make get an injury but accidents happen, you’ll heal from a mishap. Strain your back in the garden … shucks, the treatment is therapy. Pull a muscle in dancing … shucks, the treatment is more therapy. Fall off your bike … ouch, the treatment is more therapy.


So what is the best medicine in medicine?? Therapy!
It always works! Most times safe (bikes and cars don't mix well), non-toxic (some will become addicted to their place of Spa)


What is the most important word in your vocabulary as it relates to Therapy?? NO!
The most important word to use in therapy is NO.  NO to and and all negativity, fear, bosses, PTA, neighbors, etc.There is a loving way to say NO and don't feel guilty for engaging in your wellness program. Some needy folks will say, “You are just being selfish” … not really … you are self preserving and self loving. Why give away energy you don't have or can afford?


What to Believe as it relates to you, your health, future, past, present life and wellbeing?
Actually none of it!! Don’t believe it!
Patients focus on a single diagnosis as it relates to pain, that was given to them a decade ago. Your body is in a constant state of healing and repair, so as time goes my so does the diagnosis. The beauty of Therapy is that you can modify your therapy based on what areas are of concern.


In therapy what is the worse emotion? Fear of the unknown.
Because pain and myofascial dysfunction will not kill you or even shorten your life, y
